Teaching Style: Playful, accepting, respectful​My yoga journey began nearly 17 years ago after a summer of insomnia. A friend suggested yoga and in my first class, I finally relaxed and fell into a deep sleep during the savasana. I knew this was something I needed in my life. Through study and practice, I came to a strong belief in the therapeutic benefits of a regular yoga practice, including many variations. I love how a daily practice quiets my mind, provides a great workout, and gives me a full body massage, all while inviting me to a more reflective and balanced way of being.

I completed my 200 hr teacher training with dina Lang in 2015. I have taught power vinyasa, gentle yoga, senior chair yoga, children’s classes, and am certified in Yoga Tune-up. When not involved with Yoga, I enjoy exploring the many urban hikes Portland has to offer, reading, and spending time with my family. I’m excited to teach family yoga at Santosha.
